CURRENT MISSION

have fun with life, make awesome music, climb stuff, travel to places that inspire me, inspire others

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm generally a very active person. I'm always out doing things, and if I'm not, then I'm finding ways to do things. I'm always down for a genuine good time, and am very easygoing, though i hate staying in one place and doing the same thing for too long.

I grew up in Maryland, studied a bit in school, and worked various jobs in the fields of Outdoor Education and Fitness. After working a lot for a few years and not feeling particularly grounded I quit my "real job" and am putting my energy towards making music and traveling. This was the best decision, and I have met a lot of really awesome people and had wonderful experiences along the way.s

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

My main interests are music, the outdoors, and endurance sports. I really can talk for hours about any of these.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

My experiences and views on the world. I'm a big appreciator of good food, drink, coffee, and things of the like. Not necessarily the expensive stuff, but full flavors and food made with love. I can help cook, make drinks, coffee, what have you.

I worked in a physical therapy clinic for a while, so if you have any joint or muscle related questions, I will get excited to help you out.

I gravitate naturally towards music, and if you want me to make some beautiful noise in your space I will be happy to sing, play guitar, or fiddle around on any instrument that you have!
